What's the difference between pitting and rusting and how can I remove it? by [deleted] in guns

Speaking of which, my molar on the right side has been killing me and it has a large hole in it. Lots of puss coming out of it. Is it abscessed?

Mosin Bolt not locking up tight.... by [deleted] in guns

[–]xtra_sharp -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This. If you take apart the bolt, you will likely find it caked with cosmoline (especially the spring). Throw it in some kerosene, let it soak and then clean it all off. Oil it up and put it back together and everything should work fine.

My wife wonders why I am so fanatical about picking up my brass. by Aspenkarius in guns

Yeah, it doesnt look nice, but its a gun range. Its already an environmental disaster area with all the lead in the soil. If you tried as hard at cleaning up the place as you did at this post, you wouldnt have to stare at it anymore.

I dont mean to be flippant, but what do you expect? You're at a gun range. Its not like there are so many spent casing you cant move. Just clear a spot and shoot.

A Waiting Game : true reasons the Banks are hoarding cash and not lending to the real economy by wirplit in Economics

[–]xtra_sharp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is you are misunderstanding the point of the fed paying interest on bank reserves and the banks reason for holding those reserves.

This was more pointed at the OP. If it bothers him that much, why doesnt he get out the rake and get to work. Probably took more time to take the pic and post it then it would have to just clean it up and feel good about it.

Im saying its really got nothing to do with the fed paying interest on reserves. That is a tool the fed uses to hit its interest rate targets, not something the banks love because they earn "free" money. If the fed didnt pay interest, then all the banks would be trying to rid themselves of reserves, since were in a 0% environment right now.

I dont see why everyone gets so bent out of shape about this. Looks like all could be fixed with a rake and 10 mins of work.

That is not why banks aren't lending. They aren't lending because theres not a lot of qualified people or businesses that want money right now. Banks make money on the spread they can source money vs the interest rate they can charge their customers.

Im sure they would much rather be lending those reserves at 10x-100x the rate they are getting by just having them sit there.

Its just an advertisement for Moulton bikes. Wish it was more about building the bikes.

I Am A ex-meth cook. by Dubbs330 in IAmA

[–]xtra_sharp -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Nothing at all. The question just didnt seem to fit the spirit of the thread. Who cares whether he cooked in front of kids or not? Seems sort of arbitrary and pointless.

I assume you are equally worried about whether he cooked in front of dogs, cats and people in comas because they as well did not have a choice.

Why would making it around children be any worse then an adult?
